So this is happening in some hours:

How do you think it will influence price? Or it won't affect it at all?
Last time there was a public hearing we went to the moon...  Grin

Cheers!

Hopefully it will be similar to the senate hearing last year. It looks like the lineup of speakers is well rounded or even in favor of Bitcoin. It really depends on what the law enforcement speakers say, and if they echo the law enforcement from the senate hearing, then it will be all good.

I was wondering, because last time the pump started actually before the hearing.
Are people feeling less bullish about the outcome today?

So much bearish FUD around... It's sad.

January 31st is getting closer, bears (soon-to-become-bulls) with pockets full of fiat are taking their positions and need to spread as much FUD as they can in the hopes of crashing the price to their buy-in price. It's pretty obvious what's happening around here, just see it for what it is and filter out all the crap. Something really big is coming and we can all feel it, and I'm not talking about a crash.

I totally agree! Thanks for the refreshing view!

i think it's going to be positive. As long as it creates jobs and they can get tax revenue from it, I can't see why they wouldn't be in favor of it.

Also, keep in mind that in New York (although it is the financial capital of the world), being publicly against fat cats, large banks, and companies like western union is always good for politics.

The latest buzz is that new Mayor wants to tax the rich to help school kids.

Actually, I think it's hilarious.

Long term, it doesn't matter. If they are positive, price will go up. If they are negative, it means they consider it a threat and long term price will go up. Place your bets.

Look inside yourself, and you will see that you are the bubble.

I'm betting that BTC will be worth way more next year this time.

i expect positive news which will cause price to rally upwards, causing many here to be very angry, but the rally might not last long.
